Super Mario Club is Famicom Network System software (known as a "communication cartridge") introduced in 1990[citation needed] only for store staff and its associated game sales research by Nintendo.[citation needed] Mario makes a cameo appearance in the interface for the software, and the box art features the same artwork as the Mario Club Co., Ltd. logo. The original 1990 release came with a blue Mario logo/text. Later, a 1991 version was released with the same logo, though it had been recolored to be red.

Function

Super Mario Club was set up for Japanese toy shops, in which consumers were able to receive the latest reviews for Famicom games.[citation needed] The database was shared between every toy shop that had the software.[citation needed] It was possible for consumers to submit their own feedback, and their data (such as search history) was tracked by Nintendo.[citation needed]
